  1. 16. Deciphering a smart material – a new method to measure actin cortex mechanics and mechanosensitivity

    The actin cortex is a thin polymer network beneath the plasma membrane in animal cells. It acts as a mechanical shield of the cell and as a major regulator of cell shape and cell migration. The actin cortex is a complex material with time-dependent viscoelastic mechanical properties. It is further subject to a self-generated active contractile stress and to constituent turnover. I will discuss...

  2. 153. Disordered Solids
    Prof. Annette Zippelius (Georg-August Universität Göttingen)

    Talk

    We discuss a phase of matter which is charcterized by random localization of the atoms or molecules and a finite restoring force for static shear deformations. The following questions will be addressed: What is an appropriate order parameter for the amorphous solid state? How can we characterize its random structure? How do long range elastic correlations develop at the glass transition? These...
